steve and hillary shlton, senior vice president for policy and advocacy at the naacp. when you first heard about this, what did it smell like to you? what was your sense of why people would be doing this kind of thing? breaking up the states by electoral college so that the rural states would have more clout. what did you smell? >> it seemed like a real fraudulent approach to try to undercut the process. at a time when we should be moving as a nation to make sure we're more democratic in the process so more americans can participate, to make sure that the outcome of our elections are consistent with the popular decisions made by those going to the polls. we have this move to undercut all of that. it's a big problem and it really stinks in so many ways. >> that's what i think. just talking about the state i grew up, in pennsylvania, where you have a large minority population in philadelphia. it's not all black, it's half and half. but the fact is, that's where the democratic race is. and you've got an 85% turn out for president obama. basically, all of those votes would

steve, what do you think? it does seem like there is some hesitancy here, even though they can technically say this is fair, it smells. it looks like an attempt to kill the minority vote in the big cities. that's what it looks like. >> that's what it looks like. it's more than that. first of all, no, i don't think it's going to happen. i don't ultimately think it's going to happen in the other states. what it speaks to is it's not just trying to sort of isolate the minority vote. it speaks to how the emerging democratic coalition. that's african-american, hispanic, also single women, that's young professional, that coalition more than ever is tightly bunched in metropolitan areas, cities and directly around cities there is a statistic that is floating around, i think dave wasserman from the cook report came up with this. if you look back at 1998 when michael dukakis got slaughtered by george bush sr., michael dukakis carried over 800 counties. that's how tightly packed in today's democratic coalition is. it's

president obama and secretary clinton will be sitting down with steve kroft from "60 minutes." this is interesting, because it will be their first joint interview. it will air, of course, on sunday. of course, you can expect the two of them to get a range of questions, particularly about benghazi. and we also expect there to be some reflection about secretary clinton's tenure as secretary of state. of course, she's the most traveled secretary of state. so a lot to talk about during that interview. >> and, obviously, president obama, the first thing he did after being inaugurated was push forward the nominations for treasury and state. and obviously, john kerry had his first appearance before a senate panel yesterday, getting some tough questions about benghazi as hillary clinton did this week as well. >> reporter: he was, luke. and by all accounts, senator kerry's nomination is really expected to sail through. everyone expects him to be confirmed. but what happened yesterday is that he got some tough questions about secretary clinton's testimony a day earlier on benghazi. what
